Cody Rhodes announced as part of another huge show at SummerSlam 2025 weekend

Cody Rhodes is set to headline SummerSlam again as he faces John Cena in a WrestleMania 41 rematch. He was announced to be part of another major show that weekend in New York/New Jersey.

WWE announced that there will be a Late Night show with Tony Hinchcliffe during SummerSlam weekend. If you’re wondering who he is, he’s a well-known comedian, most notably in the inner circle of the famous Joe Rogan.

He has ties to WWE due to his longtime wrestling fandom and was subject to controversy after making a comment about Puerto Rico while endorsing United States President Donald Trump.

He also hosted a Roast of WrestleMania show, which was untelevised, and even phones weren’t allowed into the show. WWE officially announced that Cody Rhodes will be part of the August 2 show hosted by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe.
